The project is intended to make a contribution in six countries (Bangladesh, Dominican Republic, Kenya, Maldives, Mexico and Peru) to improved control of international climate funding on a pilot basis. Climate funding control addresses the key (funding) institutions, principles, regulations and international conventions that exist for funding measures to combat climate change impacts. Guaranteeing the effective control of climate funding, calls for a sufficient degree of transparency, accountability and integrity at both international and local level. Through targeted capacity-building among all actors, it is intended to enable greater engagement, cooperation, commitment and contributions to the development, implementation and control of climate funding policy.
